STRUCTURAL TERRAZZO
Description:
For large areas over a graded compacted base. Involves 4" of 3,500 PSI underbed concrete plus .5" terrazzo topping
Advantages:
Single contract control: One contractor places both the concrete slab and the finished terrazzo surface.
Thickness:
4.5" to 6", including a .5" terrazzo topping.
Weight:
Approx. 60 lbs. PSF.
Dividers:
Divider strips are deeper than usual: 1.5" to 2" inserted into the underbed 8 feet to 10 feet on centers. Control strips are provided on column lines.
Note: The standard finish on terrazzo is an 80 grit carborundum polish. When used in conjunction with a U/L listed "slip resistant" sealer this provides a 0.6 anti-slip coefficient of friction. Higher polish grits that tend to deepen and darken the aggregates are available.
